Tutoring: 

My work with middle school and high school students focuses primarily on completing complex written homework assignments, and writing personal statements for high school and college admissions. I also create custom-built creative writing sessions for young writers. As a former lecturer at the University of Pittsburgh and as someone who spent several years working with young writers in afterschool programs, I’ve had the opportunity to devise prompts and methods that assist young writers in pursuing their individual paths towards becoming successful collegiate-level writers.

Coaching:

I offer in person and online writing and creativity coaching sessions that are custom built around your literary and professional writing projects. Whether you need a developmental editor for a manuscript, someone to talk out your ideas with, an accountability buddy as you foray into your project, or someone to help produce your Substack content, I’m here to help.

I’ve spent over two decades developing an expertise in narrative writing — first as a lecturer in Creative Writing at the University of Pittsburgh, later as a science writer and travel writer, and more recently as a storyteller and performer. Rather than teaching, I prefer to describe what I do as coaching. I hope to help draw out and develop your best narrative skills and stories.
